Location: Hybrid with the flexibility to work from Cardiff hub or home based anywhere in Wales

This is an exciting opportunity to join our Healthier Places team. We are looking for a Graduate Engineer, to support in the delivery of our innovative programme of people-focused street and route design.

As a transport charity, the focus of the work will be the integration of Engineering and Placemaking as an integral part of Active Travel infrastructure projects.

The principle objective of these projects will be to encourage higher levels of walking and cycling and the creation of equitable and accessible environments for all.

You will be part of a multi-disciplinary design and engineering team, working on projects funded by Welsh Government, Transport for Wales, Welsh Local Authorities and engaging with diverse communities across Wales.

This role will require travel and work at locations as necessary to undertake projects on behalf of Sustrans.

We offer true hybrid working, a flexible mix of working from home and occasional travel to a nearby office hub.

About you

• You should have a degree in Civil Engineering, Traffic/Highways Engineering, or other degree related to engineering design within the built environment (or other equivalent experience).
• You will have a knowledge of inclusive design: understanding the relationship between streets and social justice and an ability to develop creative design engagement exercises suitable for a variety of audiences including school children.
• Competence in using design software and the production of technical drawings using CAD.
• You will be skilled in demonstrating openness, inclusiveness, sensitivity and the ability to interact respectfully with all people and understand individuals' differences.

Sustrans has a long-term commitment to being a charity for everyone - reducing inequality, valuing diversity, enabling inclusion and ensuring all people are treated with dignity and respect. We aim to be a truly inclusive employer and welcome applications from people from all parts of the community, in particular from under-represented groups.
